Hello, Everyone! No stamping on this post … it’s one of those less-frequent personal peeks.  Easter is always a time of hope, new life, the celebration of the Risen Christ, renewal, and it often is accompanied by the beginning peeks of Springtime.  I wish I had prepared a scripture for the weekend, as some of [...]

Yes .. that’s what I said ….. “Making Paper!”   What a privilege to learn the “art” of making hand-made paper from my sweet friend, Heather Nichols .   This is one of the highlights of my stamping visit to Wisconsin with my darling friends.
